OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES
ADOPTED:
August 26, 1999
REVISED:
1019. OUTSIDE ACTIVITIES
1. Purpose
The Board recognizes that members of the staff must enjoy private lives and may
associate with others outside of school for political, economic, religious, cultural or
personal reasons. The Superintendent, however, has a responsibility to evaluate
employees in terms of their faithfulness to, and effectiveness in, discharging school
duties and responsibilities.
2. Authority
Therefore, when nonschool activities impinge upon an employee's effectiveness
within the school system, the Board reserves the right to evaluate the impact of such
activities upon his/her responsibilities to the students and to the district's programs.
3. Guidelines
The Superintendent shall be responsible for the direction of employees unless the
following guidelines:
1.
Do not utilize school material for personal gain. Copyrights to materials or
equipment developed, processed, or tested by district employees in the
performance of district activities in fulfillment of the terms of their employment,
reside with and may be claimed by the district.
2.
The school district does not endorse, support, nor assume liability for any staff
member from this school district who conducts nonschool outside activities in
which students and employees of this district may participate.
3.
Do not campaign on school property in behalf of any candidate for local, State
or national office.
4.
Do not use school time for outside activities when there is no valid reason to be
excused from assigned duties.
